‘This Is So Sudden!’ Wholly Obsolete With Leap Year Advantage BY MARTHA LEE IT’S a wise woman who takes advantage of every opportunity. And the admonition that “All’s fair in love and war” gives additional freedom to the modern girl. Countless women face the bashful swain situation. The particular boy friend just Avon’t propose and keeps on coming to see his sweetheart, but never pops the question. ' The solution? Don’t forget, my sisters, that this is 1928

and leap year. The opportunity today presents itself for the first time in four years. Assert your rights. Here is a letter from a doubtful girl: Dear Miss Lee: I have been going with a man almost two yors. He is 50 years old and X am 34. X love him more than anything else on this earth. He seems to like me, but he won't say he loves me. What would vou do? Wuold you continue going with him? E. V. My Dear E. V.: Have you ever thought of asking the man if he loves you? We now are living in a modern age when men are only theoretically the pursuers. The day is past when a girl must hide her love from a man and then appear surprised when he proposes. The phrase, “This is so sudden!” has joined the high-wheeled bicycle in the limbo of forgotten things. Worried Brown Eyes: You have let this thing become a mental hazard. You should not have done this thing in the first place, but since you have make the best of it. Keep right on going with the man if you care to. Certainly you have the right to go with other fellows now, and you could marry another fellow if you cared to. And if you do marry someone else say nothing of this affair. In other words, Worried Brown Eyes, govern your actions in the future as if nothing had happened. Do not let one little slip spoil a lifetime of happiness.

Dear Martha Lee: I am 17 years ol age and I have been going with a fellow for about two months. He says he loves be, although he has never proposed. The other night I didn't like his actions, and I told him to go home. He got his coat and, without saying a word, was gone. The next day X saw him, and he snoke and smiled, but he didn’t say anything else. Then I went home, and. thinking how much I loved him, I called him on the phone. We went to a show that night, and on the way home saw a fellow I knew. He asked me all about this fellow, and X told him all I knew. We got home and he did not talk very much. He usually tells me how much he loves me, but he didn't that night. Do you think he loves me? If not, how can I win his love? He is six years my senior. POOR BABS. Os course he loves you, poor Babs. You “laid down the law” that night and he is doing as you said. You don’t have to win his love, but you must hold his love now. You are rather young to receive proposals, and I wouldn’t worry about that for a while yet. And besides, you have known this man for only two months. Poor Babs, get out your best frock and look your prettiest wjien this young man calls on you. Be cheerful and gay and entertain him. Forget about love for a little while and it will come of its own accord. Dear Martha Lee: I have promised to be the wife of the young man I now am going with. Formerly I had dates with his cousin, who now is married. Mv future husband wants to know of this affair. On one occasion he mentioned to me that I thought more of his cousin than I did of him. I am afraid that will cause trouble after we are married The cousin is otdy a friend now, and merely friendship exists between us. If you can In any way. please help me. X am between two thorns. BROWN EYES. You have a perfect setting for the eternal triangle. But don’t let it cause trouble for you. The best thing to do is tell your sweetheart that his cousin is merely a friend of yours. If he persistes in nagging about the affair, fight back with laughter. Tell the cousin and the cousin’s wife. Make the former affair a joke. Your sweetheart then will be laughed out of his jealous theories. My dear X. Y. Z.: Go right ahead and have a home wedding. And have the shower, too. Don’t mind what people think. And may you find happiness on your venture. Dick S.: I would be violating the strictest confidences if I revealed the name of any person who wrote to me. It absolutely is impossible to learn the name. But if conditions are as you state, then you would be justified in the course of action which you outline. Write again and tell Martha Lee more about the case. Club Card Party Th£ Gar-So-Nel Club will entertain with cards Wednesday evening at the South Side Turners Hall. The committee includes Misses Lorraine Hill and Hortense Mack, Albert Koesters and Larry Eckstein. Assistants are Misses Emma Roth, Pauline Cleary, Pauline Gibeny and Helen Beyer; John Kirch, Raymond Hasenstab, Raymond Steffen and Alphonse Wendling. Burns-Dowmin The marriage of Miss Opal E.

Friday Set for Meeting ofY.W.C.A.

Miss Oolooah Burner, National Y. W. C. A. secretary from New York, will be principal speaker at the annual meeting of the local association Friday. Music for the occasion will be furnished by Miss Helen Coffey, whistling soloist, accompanied by Miss Virginia Lucas and by a trio composed of Gertrude Whelan, pianist; Mary Well, cellist, and Thelma Rubush, violinist. A second vote will be taken on the change in membership basis. The Indianapolis association voted last year to change the membership rule, making voting and office holding dependent on willingness of ah applicant for membership to subscribe to the purpose of the association. Formerly a Y. W. C. A. had to confine its voting and office holding to members of churches in the Federal Council of Churches. At the Milwaukee convention of the Y. W. C. A. in 1926, local association were given a choice of the two ways. The Indianapolis association will abide by this second A'ote to be taken at the annual meeting.

BEAUTY HOW and WHY u m * CLEANING, POLISHING THE FINGER NAILS

By ANN ALYSIS Absolute cleanliness, loveliness of shape, color and texture are the cardinal points of beauty for the finger nails. As with the hands, cleanliness can be attained only by the lavish use of soap and water, accompanied by vigorous application of a stiff bristled hand and nail brush. Be sure the brush is of the very best quality, for a harsh variety of bristles will injure the delicate hands and nails. The appi'oved shape of the nails (rounded, oval or filbert) has been discussed in a previous article. Before cutting or filing to the desired contour, prepare the nails by softening them in a bath of warm, soapy Avater, and if they are inclined to be brittle, rub well Into them olive oil or one of the preparations I have already described. Sue}} oil will do much to improve the texture of the nails and will maintain them in good condition. As to color—pink is the fashionable tint, and as that is also nature’s preference, we have a good start. There are some individuals whose nails are very pale in color. The average, healthy nail should have a beautiful Avhite matrix, or half moon at its base, and be of a delicate pink color above that point. When such a nail is filbert shaped, and polished not too highly, it may Avell be called the jewel of the hand. Birthday Party Miss Alice O'Brien, 3721 N.

ACTIVE IN SOCIAL EVENTS TO HONOR MARY GARDEN

Acceptance of Old Age With Charm BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Geraldine Farrar has made her second great debut, greater even than her first. When she made her premier at the “Met,” as the Metropolitan Opera House was affectionately known to its darlings, she merely conquered the world. ’ Now, gray-haired, charming, gracious. it would appear that she has made a greater conquest still. Recently she appeared in Carnegie Music Hall in New York to sing to her first audience there for several years. In no time at all the hall had sold itself out. The public was curious to see what kind of Farrar had come back. The new Farrar, as one review has it, “was subdued and dignified. Her methods were in all ways softer, more delicate, than those five years back. But still it was the old Farrar winning by sheer charm of personality an audience that was on its feet to greet her, to rush to the front Avhen the program was done, to give thunderous ovations after each number.” It also added, “there was not one inartistic bid for popular favor.” It Avas the last sentence that caught my eye. Not one inartistic bid for popular favor! A sermon to the middle-aged Avho forget that rouge and hair-dye are the most inartistic things in the Avorld, dei eive no one and will not bring back j outh. What Is lovelier than a woman who knoAvs how to meet the years gracefully—whose charm is not ruined by the unhappy thought that youth has gone! Her graciousness and acceptance have a charm that even youth could not give her.

Mrs. Walls sold a thousand pounds of candy at Christmas time without advertising other than through friends.

U. S. Government Demands Purity for Mayonnaise Bn .A'A'.l Service Uncle Sam it seems, knows his sauces! He really is branching out. Before the year is out, he may rank Avith other well-known epicures. or he is exhibiting an inordinate interest in certain foods. Like all good cooks, it is the dressings and sauces which intrigue Uncle Sam. With growing interest in salads, he feels that the vital thing is to have a 100 per cent pure and appetizing dressing to lend zest to them. So. altruistically, Uncle Sam is concentrating on dressings right now. The Department of Agriculture's food standards committee has proposed a definition and standard for mayonnaise dressing that will insure the 100 per cent pure quality. Uncle Sam must, necessarily, leave the zestful touches to the individual cook making it. The proposed definition and standard is as follows: “Mayonnaise dressing is the clean, sound, emulsified product composed of edible vegetable oil, egg yolk or whole egg, a vinegar and (or) lemon juice, with or without one or more of the following: salt, other condiments, sugar, edible stabilizing material.

One Way of Giving Help to Teachers By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Miss Alice is a school teacher. She has been a school teacher for a great many years now. From the day when she first acquired what was to her a very responsible and coveted position, she has given herself wholeheartedly to her Avork. It has been to her home, husband, children. Literally hundreds of youngsters have come into contact with her bright optimism, her intrepid spirit, her eager quest after truth and beauty, and derived some stimulus for their souls. Happy in Hardship Youth has long since left Miss Alice behind. Although she has only taught in small towns, her bank account has grown slowly. She felt secure and, in spite of her hard life, was very happy. Then the dreadful thing happened. One day while crossing the street her heavy, stiff body was knocked to the pavement by that dread menace of our century- the hit-and-run driver. For twelve long months Miss Alice lay on a hospital bed. In two years she had quite recovered and was back in her old place in the schoolroom. But at what a price! In order to meet the costs of her hospital treatment she had to mortgage her future for years. On the pittance which she earned at her chosen profession, it meant month after month of grinding effort and self-denial to pay that debt, which amounted to more than $4,000. So Miss Alice, although she is past fifty, still trudges bravely to her work each day. Next year perhaps she will haA’e paid the cost and can again start saving for old age. Indicts Society Her story is true, and it’is a bitter indictment of our brilliant century. Something is Avrong when school teachers are thus driven without reward. Something is wrong when a woman gives all of her youth and her years to our children, and cannot receive from us in return free hospital service when she is ill—not even when crippled by a public menace Avhich is our fault for allowing to go on. Teachers arc not a luxury in America any more. They are a necessity. They are the soldiers of peace, and, like the soldiers of War, should be cared for when they are injured or old. The nation that can pay Jack Dempsey millions for his fisticuffs, ought to be able to provide medical attention for its faithful servitors in the schoolroom.
